The first half of the new year is an exciting and energising time, but it can also be overwhelming and exhausting. With endless to-do lists, it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle and end up feeling overwhelmed and burnt out.
I spoke to one of my clients recently and helped her...
Have you ever noticed how much your environment actually impacts you?
Remember that inexplicably strange feeling when you walk into a room and simply want to turn around and leave? Or spending time in your favourite coffee shop that smells so divine and has the most comfortable lounge that...
Do you ever feel like the journey just doesn't make sense?
Me too.
I often used to find myself having WTF moments, taking strides forwards and leaps backwards. My business journey began to feel more like a game of snakes and ladders (emphasis on the snakes) than this fantastic, freedom-producing...
Women leaders are taking over leadership positions more than ever before. Our previous post "Why Increased Diversity Makes for Good Business" visited how women now occupy 40% of seats in the boardroom at FTSE 100 companies in the UK, a significant increase from under 13% just a decade...
Author, Motivational Speaker, Writer and Commercial Real Estate Queen Leslie Register is the ultimate catalyst for change. Her book Double Shot of Sober is a story of hope and healing, a woman's journey of a lifetime of transferring from one addiction to the next, hoping to find something that...
The topic of confidence comes up whenever I chat with a budding, prospective or even long-standing entrepreneur or a business owner.
It’s unsurprising, but that in no way demeans its importance and impact on people. Or, more correctly, the importance and impact of the LACK of it in so many...

We've all heard the buzzwords, planning, intentions, goals, and how to generate money.
But what do these things mean?
How do you move from turning a vague idea into a clear intention?
How do you then formulate that intention in ways that give you clarity about how to generate money?
...When I posted about starting the process of writing a book, I received the most generous offers of help from others who’ve gone through it. Their kindness gave me all the warm and fuzzy feelings, and I’ve had a smile in my heart and face ever since.
In the past, I have been more in...
Colloquially the word 'Muppet' can mean silly, daft or, at worst stupid. Through cultural changes, the word muppet, in this sense, has been replaced by other demeaning words and phrases which I won't linger on here. Instead, I will refer to 'the Muppets' as the focus of this piece.

Childhood trauma is an event, situation, or environment you experienced as a child that left you feeling vulnerable and like you could not count on the world or others to keep you safe. One crucial factor is to break misconceptions that childhood trauma only involves physical danger or harm. On...
BAM! … AND NOW YOU'RE DEAD
Cue the morbid pipe organ music. You're looking over your funeral.
As Bach - Toccata and Fugue in D minor plays in your mind, I want you to hit the fast-forward button to your wake. Everyone's had a few drinks, and "loose lips" are in full swing.
The big question...
"Quiet quitting" is the latest buzzword for the workplace, but its presence and effects are no stranger. For the uninitiated, "quiet quitting" describes the behaviour of an employee who completes only the tasks of their position without the usual "above and beyond" vigour. They aim to do what is...
Charlotte Simpkin is a rock radio DJ, blogger and journalism student who grew up on Armed Forces bases in a musical family. Moving around a lot meant she had to make friends wherever she went, so talking was a natural and necessary talent she developed over the years. With musical backgrounds and...
I've always been fascinated by the similarities between our personal and money relationships. Some people love money, some fear it, and some have that kind of love/hate "it's complicated" thing going on. And our experiences of intimate relationships can be the same.
With February being...
It’s a fact. Most people don’t like change. Change has two very different sides. On the one hand, it can be positive, exciting and joyful; on the other hand, too much change feels overwhelming, messy, time-consuming, and takes up a lot of energy we simply don’t feel we have. It...
